Voices of the Village: The Water Street Inn Ephraim ————————-It was so fun chatting with Gretchen and hearing about some of the exciting additions they’ve made over the last few years! She even included a couple suggestions for our next stops (👀 Chef's Hat & The Fashionable)
Voices of the Village: Prince of Pierogi Restaurant. It’s always great to chat with Christoph! Be sure to stop in before they close for the season on November 3. If you miss them this fall, you’ll have the chance to catch them here in Ephraim or at their new location (!!!) in Destination Sturgeon Bay next summer! And in the meantime, you can order pierogi right to your door this winter.
Voices of the Village: Anatolia Cuisine. If you haven’t stopped in to visit Mukhtar at Anatolia Cuisine DC you’re missing out! He’s whipping up delicious foods that have been made by his family for generations. Open through the end of October. Heads up Prince of Pierogi Restaurant and The Water Street Inn Ephraim, we’re heading your way!
Eras of Ephraim: Celebrating 75 years of the Ephraim Historical Foundation. Join Curator Jeff O’Keeffe as we explore three iconic Ephraim structures, all originally designed by architect William Bernhard. His designs were strongly influenced by his Scandinavian heritage. And similarly to his mentor, Frank Lloyd Wright, Bernhard designed his buildings to complement the surrounding landscape, which is especially apparent at the Old Firehouse.
Voices of the Village: Rusty Dusty Vintage & Records It’s always a great time stopping by our friends Adam and Jackie at Rusty Dusty. They have the best collection, in their own words, of new music and weird old clothes. Next up, crossing the parking lot to say hi to Mukhtar at Anatolia Cuisine DC!
Voices of the Village: Pearl Wine CottageIt’s always such a treat to visit with Monique from Pearl Wine Cottage. Hear a bit about how Pearl got started and where she wants us to stop next (👀 Rusty Dusty Vintage)
Eras of Ephraim: Celebrating 75 years of the Ephraim Historical Foundation. In this episode, hear from EHF Curator Jeff O’Keeffe on the process of adding a new item to their impressive collection.
The Ephraim Business Council (this page) is partnering with the Village of Ephraim and @ephraimhistorical to once again share information on the painting at Anderson Dock. We are asking that visitors paint their names exclusively on the building, not anywhere else on the dock. And when painting your names, please do not use spray paint. We want the tradition of painting names on Anderson Dock to continue for generations, but we need your help in doing so respectfully.
Any questions about the do’s/don’ts of painting at Anderson Dock are welcome at the Ephraim Admin Offices: (920)854-5501
